Step-by-step explanation:
Hey there!
The answer is no because whenever you add or subtract fractions, you find the common denominator(the bottom of the fraction)
Corret way:
The common denominator is 15 (5*3)
Multiply numerator(top) and the denominator by 3
4/5*3*3= 12/15
Multiply numerator and the denominator by 5
1/3*5/5= 5/15
So the equation is now
12/15+5/15= 17/15 or 1 2/15
Hope this helps! :)
There are 2 oranges, if that’s what the question was?
Answer:
if you are subtracting then you would : 457-418=39
Its a simultaneous equation:
lets make "x" the used games and "y" the new ones
4x + 2y = 84
6x + y = 78. (multiply this by 2 to cancel out y)
12x + 2y = 156
so now we subtract them:
12x - 4x = 156 - 84
x = 9
used games cost $9
new games cost 78 - 6(9) = $24
Janet has $120 but she already bought 3 NEW games so:
120 - 3(24) = $48 left
48/9 = how many used ones she can buy = 5. something
she can buy 5 used
